    Yup, their new Hypodermic head. I've got a pretty graphic up close picture of the hole when i walked up on her that shows the size of the gash and bubbly blood pouring out

    For those still carrying a buck tag in Southern Indiana... the switch has flipped in my area over the past 72 hours.

    While I'm out hunting coyotes from dusk til daylight I observe a lot of deer behavior, sometimes 100-150 deer a night. Five days ago I was seeing at least 50 deer each night. Between 1am & 5:30am this morning I saw only five deer... all were 100-130" bucks in a dazed walk across wide open spaces. One almost walked into my parked truck, stepped back and looped 10 yards around the front bumper. Love is in the air and daytime movement is peaking.

    You guys get them while they're hot... I won't lay off the coyotes until the Orange Army starts shell shocking them in a couple weeks.

    I saw that buck in the back of that rhino and did a double take for sure! Nice buck! I was on my way to pick up my son after work and he was parked at cornerstone guns and hardware

    Here is a video from my buck that I shot back on 10/26/13 and posted back on page 6 of this thread. Been a crazy couple weeks and I just finally had time to work on this edit last night.

    This was a 7 minute hunt. Climbed in my stand at 11:48pm, hit the rattles and grunted a couple times and almost as soon as I set the rattles down I caught movement in the woods edge 200yds across the field. He popped out and came running on a string right to me. Hit the release at 11:55.

    Got my first deer last night, just not in the way I intended. I am lucky it was only a very small doe, seeing as I was going 60 when I hit it. It took off in to a soybean field and we couldn't find it. Of course it had to happen in the 4 hours I was borrowing my fathers truck to help my sister in law move yesterday.

    My youngest daughter has hunted hard this year and every time I've offered up "do you want to go hunting?" she has answered an enthusiastic "yes". She has killed several with a rifle and one with a crossbow in past years, and she was insistent that she wanted to connect again this year before gun season came in. We came so close on Friday evening but the young buck that night just knew something wasn't right.


    Saturday evening we were hunting a double stand that I had never hunted before. The evening was pretty uneventful outside of watching a lone doe feed for about 20 minutes 200 or so yards away in a neighbor's field. Then with about 15 minutes of legal time left I saw a deer moving across our back field probably 150 yards out. We were 50 yards deep in the woods and the winds were howling, so I figured no way he could hear a grunt call. But I got on the grunt call hard anyway. He stopped, turned on a dime, and RAN right to our tree. It all happened so fast it was crazy. I stopped him with a hard grunt and Sydney thumped him at a mere 6 yards, right in the shoulder, shattering the offside leg bone. He bounded about 40 yards and crashed. I was so proud of her and she has been on Cloud 9 ever since. We took some photos yesterday in the daylight hours in between church and her basketball tournament.
